Of course everybody knows how bad english is as a language... But let's talk about things english does right as a language.
I like that the one who is doing is a doer. I like the -er suffix. This just feels very intuitive and natural. I might be biased about this, because I natively speak another IE language that uses similar "contraption"... but still...
I like how easy it is to create new words in English in general. By adding different suffixes, or mixing two nouns together (breakfast lunch= brunch), etc. It makes it difficult to translate into other languages but it is very interesting!
